Abstract in brief

  • The study investigates why the implementation outcomes of the Redesigned Community Health Fund in Dodoma, Tanzania, vary across different districts and individuals, focusing on factors like organizational capacity, communication, resources, leadership, and individual characteristics.
  • Using a mixed-methods approach, the research combines surveys, document reviews, and interviews to assess 'adoption' and 'fidelity of implementation' (FOI), revealing higher implementation in district data but lower self-reported rates among individuals, with significant heterogeneity influenced by organizational and personal factors.
  • Key findings suggest that organizational strengths, stakeholder engagement, resources, and individual attributes such as education and occupation significantly impact the success of health scheme implementation, highlighting the complexity of scaling MHI schemes in low and middle-income settings.]
